  2. QUOTE(hi8is @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 11:32 PM) HAH awsome get el duque off the books and outta the pen... give bmac more time to transition into the leauge.... have another possible ace in the rotation and one in the bullpen..... and no matter how big of a woody you all have for chris young... hes still a prospect... no prospect is a sure thing.... id have to say that a #1 rated CF prospect in AA isnt as important as a possible front line starter with major leauge sucess.... expecially when you are stacked from a minor leauge CF stand point. if you take away young, you are severely less stacked than you were before. front line? if he returns to form ok, but thats a big risk, especially at 12 million per year. you are right, no prospect is a sure thing. but is vasquez?
  3. Smart world we live in. The way to stop violence and killing is... more violence and killing. hmmmm. Why do we kill people who have killed others? Guy got what is coming to him? It will make the victim's family happier? It will not, their loved one is still gone. Nothing can change that, and not more killing for sure. Quick, what is the best way to respond to violence? I guess we should believe it is violence. That is an awful precedent to set, that violence solves problems. Revenge is the only reason people want the killer dead. Oh man, if people as a whole start giving into their revengeful feelings, watch out. Everyone has wanted to get revenge, but to say in death row cases that revenge is all right is quite mindless. Do we really want the eye for an eye rule? You steal a loaf of bread from me, I steal bread or perhaps even something else from you. Pretty soon it would become you hurt me, I kill you. It goes downhill from there. You put a man behind bars for the rest of his life, he will regret what he did. He sees the same bars day in and day out and you are damn right he will realize that what he chose to do earlier took away his freedom. Now, isn't that what life is about? Learning. You kill that man, he will have learned nothing. Only possible thing he could have learned was that killing others makes others kill you. That is not right. He should instead be learning that life and freedom is precious, priceless. When he is in jail, he has nothing to do but think about what he has done. He will undoubtedly learn he has done wrong. What is on his mind when he is dead? The answer is nothing. What is on his mind when he is in jail every single day for the rest of his life? What he has done. That is a far worse punishment than anything else is. What gives the right to the government or anybody that they decide who should live and die? Nobody has the right to force his or her way on another person. The killer forced himself on the victims. Nevertheless, the government ends up doing the same and forces itself on the killer. Way to stoop down to his level. I commend you.

    Ipod Help

    QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 11, 2005 -> 06:10 PM) I got a question. is there an easy way for me to take songs off my ipod and put them on another computer. I want to move them to my laptop and figure there has to be a way to do it easily (and import them into my laptops library) directly through the Ipod. only way i know is using a program called EphPod. http://engadget.com/entry/7166385640773718/

  10. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Nov 27, 2005 -> 03:10 PM) 1. How do Peterson's runs have anything to do with luck? 2. How is forcing a fumble lucky? 3. Bears were already winning when Morgan went down. 4. Vashers return is actually a play that gets practiced, and had some good blocking Were you even using your brain when you made that post? 1. peterson is a pretty bad player, hence he should not be racking up rushing yards. 2. the fumble was indeed the weakest point of my argument. the point was that the team was driving and in field goal range and the bears happen to force a turnover. 3. morgan went down 5 minutes into the game. thats 55 minutes without morgan. bulls*** that that did not have an effect. 4. haha theres no way you can honestly deny that the 108 yarder was luck. there are so many blocks that must occur, without an illegal hold mind you, that it does not happen by skill. were you using your brain when you were responding, or were you just gonna back up there bears no matter what. luck must be happening when a team cannot move the ball, which the bears cannot do. they have not had a reciever go over 100 yards in a game, nor has orton passed for more than 150 yards in a game more than once. factor in that they have rushed for over 100 yards 5 times, and thats a pretty bad offense. the points must therefore come from defense and special teams. and as we all know, special teams points are mostly luck and you know it.
  11. 108 yarder was total luck. not even funny how much luck that was. could also throw in the fumbled punt by SF. you could even say any of peterson's runs he has had in any game have been luck. against the saints, saints fumble on the bears 15. thats mostly luck, a little skill though. against panthers, their best linebacker morgan got injured, could easily say that was some big help for the bears. that missed field goal by bryant is right at the top of the list of lucky breaks the bears have gotten.
  12. QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:15 PM) I'm going to say this now. I hate this f***ing trade. i'm with you
  13. QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Nov 23, 2005 -> 02:08 PM) I haven't been this pumped since we got Freddy Garcia even when they won the world series?
  14. only saw a little bit of the movie, thoroughly enjoy the song though.
  15. QUOTE(rangercal @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) So you think they won't? If that's what you think, I have no problem digging this thread up in a few weeks it is what i think, but that is not the point. the point is not to toot your horn before anything is for certain. i'll have no problem if you dig this back up if they do somehow finish up with 9 or more wins.
  16. QUOTE(rangercal @ Nov 21, 2005 -> 01:26 PM) here is a good one from that admin from Iowa have they won 9 yet? thought so.
